2014

Xbox One:

Bought one... excellent!! Great graphics, quite, stunning and really good to use.

Can't wait for all the new game titles to come out!!

Call of Duty - Ghosts

Finally got my copy of Ghosts... very impressed!! Great graphics and gameplay in Multiplayer!!

Only got about 2% into the Campaign which also looks good so far!!

Linked my Blog...

Having fathomed out how to link my old blog to the new blog... I may be using this again and actually keep up to date with the world of blogging.

I could use this for general information and possible game reviews, etc...

Keep looking for more from me.

Cheers.

New Stuff...

Trying out CS5... looks flash but haven't found much that wasn't already there. Will keep looking and might do a review.

Finished my website now... www.eddievandorland.co.uk - might look at doing the portfolio page a bit different as it's not the easiest thing to add more work to.

Got to get a new Xbox as mine's died for the 3rd time!! Have been made a good offer though, should have it tomorrow or Monday latest.

Got to go... pub's calling...

Available for work...

...having been made redundant on Thursday 1st April (and no, it wasn't a joke!).

I am now available for freelance graphic design & artwork jobs or any full-time placement if there's one going.

Please visit www.eddievandorland.co.uk to see examples of work done. I will be updating regularly and will also make a downloadable PDF of CV and work.

Thanks for now, hope to hear from you soon.

VERBATIM WEBSITE

This is immense...

HAPPY 2010!

Been a long time since my last blog… so why not do a New Year one?!?

Is it just me or are more people dumping the Facebook status in favour of Twitter? I’ve found this to be more the case recently. People can share links easier and it’s much easier to use with stand-alone applications such as TweetDeck (http://www.tweetdeck.com/beta/download/). There are many others out there for all platforms but I find this the best.

GoogleWave is also not taking off as well as I thought! I installed it not long after it came out and I received an invitation from a friend, used it for about a week and now have not received a message in months!! I currently have 16 invitations to invite/recommend friends to join… obviously no-one wants them as I have Tweeted and Facebooked the fact!! Come to think of it, after reading this and you wish to receive an invite… email me your email address and I’ll happily send you one.

I will get round to updating my website this year too… HONEST!! I’ve just been very busy over the past few days/months and haven’t really sat down and sank my teeth into it. To be honest I’ve also been too busy playing on the Xbox360, Assassin’s Creed II, Dragon Age: Origins, Borderlands… all are really immense games and take up far too much of your time!!

A couple of friends of mine have recently set-up their own businesses and I would like to wish them all the best for 2010! Here are the links to their websites so please take a look: Mixed Reality - http://www.mixedrealitystudio.com/ and also Ideal Digital - http://www.idealdigital.co.uk/

Not too sure of anything else… except for me to say that I hope 2010 brings everyone what they wish for and deserve! Adios…
